Personally, I have always loved the kimono. However, when I tried it on the first time I never owned large bags so I felt drowned by it. Now that I have neverfulls I love, I went to re-try on the kimono and instantly fell in love with it. It's definitely on my list! The price is high but it seems like an exquisitely made bag from the handles and the shape. It's also very light and comfortable too. I like that it's dressier yet carefree. I'd get a noir =]

I've tried on the PM as well. It's such a cute size but I wouldn't wear with the strap... so then it would only be hand carry which would be inconvenient. The larger one is a very comfy tote.

As for the price, it is steep. I would be more keen on it if it was cheaper than the Montaigne since it's canvas and leather. I think it should have been around the mid 2k but alas... I may have to just suck it up haha.

As for the flandrin, I did try it on as well next to the kimono and as much as I like the flandrin, and it's price point, it doesn't intrigue me like the kimono. I guess the shape is too ordinary for me and too much like my neverfull.


The iena is really nice. I'd use that as a work tote honestly for the price point and save the kimono for the nice fridays at work and the weekends, personal days rather than work

It was one of the most beautiful bags I had ever seen, and knew I had to have it! Unfortunately I don't wear it nearly as much as I should, don't ask me why :confused1:

Here is my new Kimono. I absolutely love it!!! It is not as large as everyone makes it out to be, in my opinion I was hoping for a few more inches in height. No way I would compare this to a Neverful. At first I thought it was the PM until I saw the PM in the LV store today. The PM is so tiny. I don't believe the measurements on the US site are accurate. By the way, if anyone is interested in the Flandrin go into the store, it is a lovely handbag too. LV really put thought into the details of the Flandrin and Kimono. I was almost tempted to purchase the Flandrin as well.m Anyway, here is my new Kimono. My apologies if the quality isn't up to par, I don't have an eye for quality photos.

I live in Atlanta, when I was searching the botiques early February, the boutoques would only stock one per size and they were both display models. Stopped by both stores last week, they were still on display. Its also available online.. So not sure if they are discontinuing.

I think it is pretty expensive for what it is. I'm hoping to get this bag but the fact it isn't displayed much is a little worrying as I don't want to get a bag which will be discontinued in a year?
